just had a week in pamporovo staying at malina villas 1st ski holiday & had a great time, malina villas are warm & comfortable & only 5 mins walk to ski school & lifts, quiet out there but as we had 9 & 7 year olds with us it suited us, bulgarian people we met were some of the most friendly people i have ever met & nothing was too much trouble for them. we were self catering & all meals we had were good, ate out at italian in perelik & white hart & irish bar near malina (very cheap). snow conditions not great but as we were all beginners was enough for us to learn on even if it did get a bit cramped on 1st day at bottom near ski depots cos there was a lot of beginners but after tuesday conditions a lot better,only complaint was 3 man lift breaking down all day friday so didn't do any skiing as kids didn't want to use single liftbut all in all a good holiday, can't wait to go skiing again

When it snowed how long did it take for the snow to melt?

Does anyone have any recent pictures of the slopes other than that bloody webcam??

Agree with White Hart. Great meal, with steaks and lovely ice creams puds and beer less than £9 a head.

Very Happy

If the webcam bothers you that much, don't look at it! It's a free service, stop moaning
